The center was off to a hot start with eight points and seven rebounds in just 11 minutes before exiting.

Jordan has been arguably the NBA's most durable player over the past six years, appearing in a full 66 games during the lockout-shortened 2011-12 campaign before notching playing time in all 82 games during the 2012-13, 2013-14 and 2014-15 seasons.

All told, Jordan hasn't missed more than five games in a season since 2009-10.

The league leader in field-goal percentage five seasons running, Jordan is currently averaging 11.9points, 15.1 rebounds and 1.0blocks on 65.7 percent shooting as a rim-running wrecking ball in Rivers' offense.

If the Clippers can't roll Jordan out alongside Blake Griffin, Willie Reed will likely slide into the starting spot at center.
